Resumen

A particular type of architecture travel sketch consists of images made with a dual purpose: for the author, as a means to analyse and learn about the architecture represented and to create documents to transmit the essence of this architecture to other people. Such drawings must show the characteristic values of the buildings they represent, and they should be made using the most adequate graphic means, as well as the most explicit viewpoints. In order to be able to draw in this way, a certain prior architectural culture is needed to help in the choice of the best and clearest images for teaching. This prior culture will also feed on all the information obtained in the observation process, something which is vital to the creation of the drawings.
